In Morocco, there's this tradition that every Friday we eat couscous.
Wherever you are, in a hospital, at work, in restaurants.. there's couscous in the menu. Of course in a restaurants you can ask for something else, but you won't get couscous unless it's Friday.
As I live alone, I don't make couscous, it's a family meal, otherwise it will be too much work for one person.
I should ask my mom to make it for me when I go visit next time, I miss having couscous.
Have you ever tried couscous or heard of it ?

Looks delicious. Your story sounds interesting that this meal is something that is already in your culture.

I have never tasted it. That plate there of food looks delicious.
I hope you can go home to have couscous with your Mom.

Yes, they sell it in a box here. It isn't bad...just another grain.

I often have couscous as an alternative to rice or pasta. It needs something added to make it palatable but sometimes I buy a packet mix and just add water. Ainsley Harriott does a few different ones including a Moroccan mix. 
When they are 3 for £1 I usually buy them to keep a few handy if I fancy couscous.

Yes, my friend's mother from Bangladesh made it for us. The grains were smaller than in the picture, though. The ones in the picture look a lot like hominy (it's made from corn).

I've heard of couscous but I don't think I've had it. Is that a picture of it?
